Spring Open House

Well, its here! I apologize for not being able to post sooner. I had to work at our Subway stores most of the week. I am sure everyone knows how much free time there is when you are working full time. I am just going to post some pictures of what we have to offer. All items go on sale tomorrow at the start of our Open House. If you see something you like, just call or email me for availability and pricing with travelling fare. We would also be happy to hold an item for you.

This is a great old strawberry tote with baskets. I added some brome grass and made some strawberries out of wool.

This is an old feed sack chair cushion on a great little prim chair.

This is a box of your primitive needfuls. We have our raw flax, some homemade lye soap, old ticking, a pincushion made from an old feed sack, buttons, pins and a little sweet annie. The picture on top of the box could be of the person that had a little box like this of her very own.
We have a great selection of pin keeps. Some are made out of boxes that have been stained and inked for the great prim look. The boxes are then filled with raw flax. They have a great little strawberry on top of the pincushion that was all made out of an old feed sack.



We have handmade dogs, cats, goats, sheep and best of all our dolls.


We have vintage scoops with bird nests and electric lights. We also have old spice tins, vintage looking stitcherys', eggs in canning jars, greens in old pots with bird nests and more little stitched pin keeps.












We also have crocks, labeled jars, canning crocks, quilt pieces, books, signs, furniture, cubbies, jugs, duck and chicken crates.


We have a keeper of the garden door and keeper of the garden chairs. We have lots of garden items, prim planters, enamelware,decorated washboards, pillows, kitchen primitives and these are only a few of the items. Remember, all the handmade items are made by us, nothing is purchased.




















We have many items that did not get completed so don't be disappointed if you can't make it this weekend. We will keep adding new items. As always, thanks for taking the time to stop by, Lynda

I will post pictures of some of the items we will have available at our Open House! The catch is, none of these items will be made available for sale until Friday, April 15th. If you are interested in making a purchase online, email me at thecrowscorner@yahoo.com or call us at 419-298-3503 and we will have someone standing by at the computer and phone to process your order if the items are still available. We take money orders, pay pal and will combine shipping. We hope you enjoy looking at the photos and we hope to see you at the Open House. As always, thanks for taking the time to stop by, Lynda

Patented December 18, 1917

We have this great old tin butter churn available for sale.
It is in great condition and has all original parts to the best of my knowledge. It even has the original wooden paddles inside, with a wooden split lid. This is an awesome piece.

In this picture, you can see the patent date. I have not seen many of these in this condition. Visit us at www.thecrowscorner.com for more specifics and pricing.

We also have this mid to late 1800's coverlet with the name in the lower corner. it is a great blue and white and would be great over a bed, back of a couch or hanging. It is also in great condition.

Primitive Items For Sale

Hi, thanks for stopping by. I just wanted to list a few pictures of items that we are putting in the shop this week. I will get these listed at www.thecrowscorner.com along with dimensions and prices. I will just tell you a little about the pieces.
First I have this old bucket/firkin. It has a beautiful patina which can only come from age.

Next is the great little shelf. I added a curtain made from an old feed sack with red and blue strips on it. The curtain is hanging from rusty wire. I think this would look great in any room.

I have added many new table runners. These are salvaged pieces of very old loomed rugs. Each have different colors and are differnt sizes.

This great little house I found at a barn sale. My dear hubby was ready to crown me because it was in pieces. He has it all fixed up and would make a great bird house or a great piece for a primitive display in your home.

Next is the great wool carder with a little bit of raw wool tied to the handle.


This footstool is made from 100 year old barn siding off my grandpa's farm. The top is hand hooked with pieces off wool and it just tacked on with 4 carpet tacks. It can easily be removed for cleaning or if you wanted to paint the wood. A really great little piece.


Next is this 4 quart glass butter churn. If you look at the bottom of the glass it goes in around the bottom. This piece is in great shape.
This is a 5 gallon crock butter churn. It has the complete paddle inside. Another great piece.


The last piece for today is the great primitive high chair. It has a wonderful green color to it

Well I guess that is it for my listings today. I am still busy making more fabric boxes, Easter items, jewelry, handbags, dolls and much more. I will be listing more items this week. As always, thank you for visiting, Lynda
